Over the last several months, Apple's vision for television has become
clearer.
Thanks to work by Wall Street analyst Gene Munster on the hardware side and
the New York Post's Claire Atkinson on the content and cable side, we now
have a pretty good picture of what Apple wants to do:
Build a TV set that is much cooler and easier to use than anything else out
there
Charge twice as much for it

Anti-Apple Anger
Why do Android fans seem so angry about it?
By Marco Arment
I’ve noticed a very clear trend among tech sites I read: Android fans are
unusually quick to fill the comment box with rage on articles that mention
anything positive about Apple or its products. The reverse — Apple fans
leaving angry comments on pro-Android articles — is almost completely
absent from the sites I’ve seen, including sites like The Verge that have
many readers in both... 阅读全帖

Worse, for Apple, the reaction against the brand is coming from its own fan

苹果vs三星案件的最新发展：上诉法庭要求苹果证明用户对Samsung 产品的需求是因为
